This paper describes the concepts of architecture of modern systems for e-learning based on semantic technologies with the aspects of adaptation, personalization and dynamic adaptability of learning material. The proposed architecture is able to generate the student's profile based on basic and historical data on the student which ensures the personalization of the system. The personalized student...
With the intervention of technology into education, plain text learning material does not suffice anymore. Learning Management Systems (LMS) are effectively replacing the monotonous and rigid method of imparting education. However, there is a necessity of a framework to which these learning technologies can comply to. This paper discusses such a framework-SCORM. SCORM is the Advanced Distributed Learning...
Anyone who has gone to a college or a high school in the last decade (or more) probably knows what the eLearning is. With the rise of Internet and affordable Internet-capable devices, lots of universities and schools provide even more eLearning materials than the classic ones. With the rise of smartphones and tablets the trend has gone mobile. Therefore, several millions pages of educational material...
Universities in Germany face increasing numbers of students, while resources are stagnating or shrinking. Especially large scale lectures suffer from a lack of individualization and interaction, often leading to inefficient learning outcomes and low student satisfaction. We present the concept of instructors co-creating eLearning modules and even parts of the exam with students for improving learning...
This paper describes an experimental study conducted to investigate non-speech sounds such as earcons and auditory icons when used alongside speaking avatars in e-learning interfaces. The usability aspects (effectiveness, memorability and user satisfaction) of the experimental e-learning interface were evaluated by a group of 24 users. The obtained results showed that earcons and auditory icons could...
Content evaluation is important as it has a direct impact on the learners' performance. It helps us know about the content being delivered, based on which we can refine the content for enhanced learning. E-learning is more embryonic as it allows learner to learn on his own ease. In e-learning environment, the availability of varieties of documents makes chaos for readers to which they have to depend...
Shibboleth enables a seamless connection for authentication required Web sites. In this paper, we describe an implementation and a practice for such connection in e-Learning between a Moodle, a video streaming site and providing results of examinations site.
A new e-learning support technique using Moodle software with the wide-spread of the Internet, e-learning systems have been introduced in the universities. As the current material in the e-learning system is uniform, students must study uniformly despite the difference of their skill and knowledge. This paper proposes a new e-learning support system that can present the different texts depending their...
The thirst for information in complex working environments calls for intelligent systems which optimally assist the user, i.e. which offer the user the most relevant information. The aim is to decrease the time the user has to spend on his hunt for information and to offer him the best fitting help and learning material in an on-demand manner. We present an approach for the semantic retrieval of help...
This paper presents a novel algorithm for tagging the relationship of test on the learning content called Binary Union-plus Tag (BUT). The proposed algorithm is motivated by the desire of students to re-study unacquainted content after a test. By binary coding items of content, BUT provides the users of an e-Learning system a certain range of content which lacks learning to connect to tests and content...
The article considers an analysis of the delivery methods using traditional learning, eLearning, and blended learning. Analysis of the comparison between traditional learning and eLearning has been done. The characteristics and benefits of blended learning are analyzed. Blended learning course development steps are described.
The popularity of open-source software is increasing around the world, especially in the field of higher education. Various commercial as well as open-source learning management systems are available today which are being used in educational institutions. These tools have introduced a new concept of teaching methodology which has huge benefits over traditional methods. In this paper, we describe six...
In the represented paper there are considered different instructional strategies, which are used in order to create effective and flexible learner-oriented e-learning environment. There are discussed the main educational theories, their main characteristics and their implications for e-Learning.
In the paper we deal with a problem of ‘Evaluation of eLearning’ from the aspect of adaptability. We consider eLearning as an educational project. We have determined phases both of eLearning project and phases of evaluation and we designed criteria for their evaluation. In case of adaptive eLearning we need to extend the items. The study support evaluation form consists of four criteria groups: fundamental...
As various information resource of education and teaching process, implementation and using the education resource is the nucleus of education information-based By the analysis to education resource management system, this text search according to the feasibility that OSS sets up resource management system, then Liferay can become the technique platform that sets up resource management portal; the...
e-Learning offers many opportunities to fulfill universities' general quality principles for learning and teaching as pointed out in their strategy papers. But to strengthen the role of e-learning as an “enabler” for quality in higher education it must be guaranteed that e-learning itself fulfills certain quality requirements.
The aim of this contribution is to lead the reader into the problems of information competency and e-learning. In electronic education the students use information competencies, that's why we tried to clarify also the problem of creating the educational e-learning texts. The contribution also informs about the results of evaluation of the quality of prepared e-learning educational texts for the subject...
The article deals with utilization of learning management system and other effective language tools in the learning-teaching process applied in English courses at University of Pardubice.
At present the use of computers and new information and communication technologies has become an important aspect of education. Teachers have enabled the teaching community to redefine some of the strategies and concepts of teaching and learning. The contribution attempts to examine how the traditional role of a teacher in the electronic courses changes and what preconditions are pivotal for the tutoring...
The aim of the article is to present main acquisition of the project which enhance knowledge and skills of university teachers, scientific researchers and PhD students. The project implements several training courses for distance learning and e-learning in various fields. In this paper we focus on how to prepare the younger generation of teachers for the best usage of modern technologies in the teaching...
